John W. Morgan, who would have been 90 years old next April, passed away at the home of his son C. F. Morgan, east of Savannah December 3. He had been confined to his room four years having fallen and broken his hip causing him to be an invalid.
The funeral sermon was preached Monday afternoon at the Long
Branch church by Rev. W. C. Cowart and the body was placed in the
cemetery near by the side of his wife who died in 1910.
Mr. Morgan was born in Kentucky April 25, 1827, came to
Buchanan county in 1881 and shortly after to Andrew County. He
joined the M. E. church in Buchanan county thirty three years ago
and removed his membership to New Hope. Last year he was enrolled
in the home department of the M. E. Church South, Sunday school.
